Based on the antivax mentality, the Nazis relaxed compulsory vaccination programs in the countries they occupied, apparently hoping it would increase mortality and weaken these countries. As 'superior' Aryans, they were sure to be spared.

Finally, she found one batch of blood samples without PFOS — but with it came a devastating revelation.

Until we change the system so it no longer produces monsters, monsters will be born and will thrive.
If we allow people with money and power to escape responsibility for their crimes, it means our system is broken, and changing the government won't make a sliver of a difference.

He’s running a far right, fascist, white supremacist poison machine and being subsidized by U.S. taxpayers to do it, to the tune of, at least, $38 billion dollars.
One key dimension of Musk’s far right propaganda push is his effort to reframe far right extremism as “centrism.” It’s patently absurd to those who follow politics, but it’s effective messaging when aimed at low info voters.
